Nah, that was nothing. I
like having conversations! I'm not the typical male; I don't talk in minimized sound bytes. And I write exactly the way I talk. No pretty lady has ever accused me of holding back.
I'm going to start writing a book this summer, maybe two at once ... an autobiography focusing on characters I've met over the years, and the second, a true-to-life ghost story.
I expect to have to throw out half of what goes on paper to tighten everything up, and keep from writing two hundred thousand word novels.
